Do something nice for a stranger
Last week my mother-in-law was looking at Christmas trees on a lot. She said that she was mumbling out loud about how expensive they are. She decided to not buy a tree this year and was walking to her car. Some people walked up to her and asked if she wanted the tree she had been looking at. She said No. Go ahead and take it, but thanks for asking. They said, We don't want it. We were going to buy it for you if you want it. She said, That's very nice of you, thank you. I don't think I know you, do I? They said, No. We just thought it would be nice to buy you the tree for Christmas. She accepted the gift, had it delivered and set up, and is enjoying it in her living room.
It's really nice to see that this sort of thing still happens occasionally.
Thanks for the thread, Flax. Happy holidays to you, yours, and all.
